Hospital harpist eases the wait for visitors

Gentle notes drift through the still space of the room.

The angelic sound offers quiet comfort every Thursday at McLeod Seacoast Hospital, their busiest day for same-day surgery.,

“I wasn’t sure the harp was the best place to be in a hospital because my thought was, next stop is heaven,” said Skudera.

But it’s been music to her ears for more than a year after hiring the harpist, who is part of the volunteer and student services program.

“When you see her play it, you can see she is so in tune and so married to that harp, it’s absolutely amazing that she doesn’t know what’s going on around her. She doesn’t know that all the people are listening, all the people are looking at her,” said Skudera.

She is Peggy Mann, who likes to be called Peg.
